July 2000 Winner The Eraserhead Award For Disturbing Behaviour | HATS OFF TO TREVOR SWAIN It was LETTER TWO. This is Trevor's third letter to our part-time barmaid, who once wore red. She'll know better next time! There is a true and rather unhappy end to this story, which prevents further rounds being played. In 2001, Trevor Swain was severely injured as he fell from a bus. His alcoholism, so long a source of comfort and forgetfulness, turned against him as he lay dying. Rather than call help, the people around him assumed that he had simply slipped into a sodden trance. So, by the time help was called, Trevor Swain had died. The story merited a column inch in the Nottingham Evening Post. This page, therefore, is dedicated to his memory.
